The updated terms establish region-specific contractual frameworks replacing the previous unified agreement. Job seekers and employers now operate under distinct terms based on geographic location: users in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and India are covered under one agreement, while EU, U.K., and Switzerland users follow separate terms. The revised terms introduce explicit mandatory arbitration clauses, liability limitations, indemnification obligations, and a new Job Applicant Privacy Notice. Job seekers should review the arbitration provision, which requires disputes to proceed through arbitration rather than litigation. You can review the applicable regional terms based on your location at ZipRecruiter's website before creating an account or posting content.
